Luke is the only synoptic writer with this parable about the widow and the bad judge. Luke indicated that Jesus said that because this widow (τὴν χήραν ταύτην) kept bothering or causing trouble (διά γε τὸ παρέχειν μοι κόπον) to this bad judge, he was going to grant her justice (ἐκδικήσω αὐτήν). Thus, she would not wear him out by her continual exhausting harassment (ἵνα μὴ εἰς τέλος ἐρχομένη ὑπωπιάζῃ με) anymore. In other words, this bad judge just wanted to get rid of this widow, because she was exhausting him with all her supplications and demands. Thus, he granted her a verdict of vengeance against her enemy. Have you ever had a favorable court ruling?
